Ahh Reince, about that promotion…

Yesterday Wiggy was quoting Hotline in Saying Mr. Priebus was among the inside choices to be the next RNC Chair once Michael Steele finally sucumbs to his lethal case of foot in mouth disease.
Needless to say the GOP Bloggers in the State were all hailing to the new born king.

Then Reince went into Action. It was, after all, a big day for him to shine!

He blasted Senator Feingold saying “What’s really troubling in all of this is the silence of Senator Russ Feingold,” said Republican Party of Wisconsin Chairman Reince Priebus. “Bucyrus’ CEO cited people like Scott Walker specifically for going after the government’s job killers, but Feingold is content to go in the wrong direction.”

According to Priebus, Feingold owes it to Wisconsin to get more involved in the real problems facing our state.”

Reince said that Feingold didn’t do anything to help keep the Bucyrus jobs in WisconsinToday his own foot landed flatly in Reince The Prince’s Mouth.

WHEN THE SENATOR RESPONDED !!

Sen. Russ Feingold accused the state GOP Thursday of “complete fabrication” for saying he was “silent” during the recent blow-up over potential job losses at Bucyrus International.
“I just think everybody ought to be aware they’re just fabricating things. It’s pretty egregious,” said Feingold, who raised the matter during a phone interview.Bucyrus CEO Tim Sullivan stated ” the facts do not support” the charge that Feingold was silent, saying Feingold lobbied the bank’s chairman in two letters and a phone call.

What are the odds that RNC bigwigs who are ushering Mr. Steele out the door will look at Priebus as more of the same?

Then again, word has it his top challenger for the post is Sarah Palin.

2 Letters and a phone call? Reminds me of the movie “Team America: World Police” when the Film Actor’s Guild and the UN were gonna send Kim Il Jong a letter! Such an effective method of getting what you want. So, Priebus(sp.?) gets partial credit.

Tim Sullivan was the guy to get his business straight, cause like he said, he’d have been gone. BUCY shareholders are lucky to have this guy as their leader and it’s a textbook example of leadership. Knew exactly whose nipples to tweak in this situation. Feingold, like Walker, was just along for the ride, like he has always been, especially in an election cycle.
